Each episode will be uniquely named after a colour such as Blue and Violet before culminating in a big finale called White.
As a result of its structure and the genre being a thriller mystery, depending upon the order in which you view the episodes, it is likely that fans will have different theories and concepts based upon the order in which they viewed the show.
The drama will star Giancarlo Esposito, Paz Vega, and Tati Gabrielle.
The show is loosely based on the real life story of when seventy billion dollars in bonds disappeared in Manhattan during Hurricane Sandy.
The eight episodes in the show will span from 24 years before the event up until six months after.
Kaleidoscope debuts on Netflix on January 1st.
